Isn't there a thread around here somewhere called "Why Legolas"?

Yeah, me too. I can see that he is handsome, but I don't find him attractive. Does that make sense?

My favorite charecter is Aragorn. He is a mortal man and has made his shared of mistakes. Plus, he is 10 times hotter than Legolas will ever ever ever be!!!! *Uh oh... I can already here the Legolas fans scream!* Aragorn reminds me of a dragon in that he is not all holy and good. ARAGORN RULES!!!!!!!!
Sigh, how sad. Ever heard of Feanor? The Kinslaying? The Oath of the Noldor? Maeglin?

Anyway, what the heck is wrong with doing the right thing?!?Being good is...good.

Aragorn is a very goodly person. He isn't too far off from the Elves in goodness, being a throwback to Numenor. Much like Faramir (the REAL Faramir!).

Dragon? *blinks* You're right about that, Dragons are most definitely NOT all holy and good. If you are talking about the Dragons of Middle-Earth they are evil and greedy creatures, bred by Morgoth to do battle against the forces of good.

I know what you mean, Faramir, a lot of women do seem to like LotR for only Legolas or Aragorn (mostly Legolas, some Aragorn). Of course, not all of them do; SGH particularly pops into mind as a very well-learned Tolkien scholar, but cassio(um, whatever, can't remember) also seems to be well-versed in the ways of Arda. And I doubt azalea would have gotten to be a mod by screaming and fainting over Leggo and Viggo.

I'm sorry if I came off a bit harsh, but I had to let it out.

Why Legolas?

Because he is an elf. Not just any elf either. He is the elf in the fellowship. He is the elf we see the most.

Plus, Orlando Bloom just happens to be very actractive as an elf. The white/blond hair, the starry eyes, the delicate lips.

AAAAAAAA!!!

Oh my god! What was I just doing! I was... I was--- BEING AN ORLANDO BLOOM FAN GIRL!!!








Excuse me while I hang myself.

OK, enough about Legolas. Does anyone like Elijah Wood?

What ruined it for me was seeing "Flipper". Elijah Wood with his shirt off. *shrug* Not bad.

Accually, I think that Elija is quite attractive, not as much as Viggo, mind you, but still... His charecter in the book is a lot stronger than it is portrayed in the movie. Was very mad in tfotr, when Arwen says, "If you want him, come and claim him!" Frodo was suppost to say that line!! It makes his charecter soooo strong. To gather up all of your courage and strength to call the Black Riders into the river... Oh well, whats done is done, right? Am I the only one who found Boromir, Sean Bean, to be more than a little Attractive?

well, i'm not too sure about the 'attractive' thing, but he did have the sweetest line in the FOTR (ie. 'I would have followed you, my brother...my captain...my king'). bought a tear to my eye...

Elf. Freak, I was sobbing when Boromir died! I wan't expecting him to, becasue he dies at the begging of the second book. I was thinking that him dieing at the beggining of TTT would be a good way to set the emotional feel for the movie!

Adrian Baggins, Pippin is played by Billy Boid (Spelling?) Merry is played by D-something -er-other Mohagan, I think. I could be wrong though...

Adrian where did you get Elijah's e-mail? You've got to realize that because he's an actor (and a semi-famous one at that) he probably cant get up on the computer that often because he's off on set and everything. And what's more he PROBABLY realizes he's the idol of a good 20%(or more) of America's Girl population and even if he DOES check his e-mail (even if he has one) he wouldn't put it up on a place where people could get to it. So dont get your hopes up k?
Eowyn you mean Dominic Monaghan? He's a cool guy and doesn't get enough credit. I mean he's not that spectacular to drool over (Like Orlie or Elijah) but he's cute enough. Then there's Billy Boyd who's absolutely adorable and he's goin' to be 35 next year And for you Orlie fans YM magazine has a FINE picture of him on one of it's December covers...of course they designed another one for Elijah freaks so gaze away.
Cheers,
Sam
ps. Wormtongue? Haldir? What is the world COMING too?

Why do all the male actors have fanclubs? What about Miranda Otto? She's hot. I say that she needs some fanboys. Guys, who's with me?

Legolas/Orlando Bloom- HOT
Elijah- Cute
Arogorn- OK

I think the character Legolas is hotter than Orlando (but Orlando is still cute!) I think its the hair and the blue eyes that just jump out at you makes him so good-looking!

I think Miranda Otto's hot. Way hotter than Cate Blanchett or Liv Tyler (Cate looks interesting, which is something, but Liv looks like a blubberer). But I can't say I'd really get into a fan club or something about any hot actress anymore. Either my testosterone level has dropped from its teenage levels, or the level of sexual satisfaction in my life has increased from its teenage levels (both are probable -- go ahead and mock me!). I'll leave the writing of odes to Miranda Otto to the hormonal and frustrated! Ahhh, peace has its benefits...

...course I wouldn't object to seeing a little more of Miranda in the future.

Oh yeah, and I'll say it again (I said this a month or two ago): Orlando Bloom dressed up as Legolas looks like a girl. So do the rest of PJ's elves, except when they're wearing their 1950's sci-fi helmets. Mr. Bloom was far better in "Blackhawk Down," I think, but that wasn't a movie for gushing over cuties. More like gushing blood, I think.

Untrue. Not Ian McKellan, or John Rhys-Davies, or Christopher Lee. Or Theoden, or Eomer (so far...)
